    I received an email notification “Deon2020” started a conversation with me, stating someone is interested in a product I am selling, and to email them. I log into TW and don’t have any notification a conversation was started, and when I search for “Deon2020” no profile is found.

    Scam?

    that checks out, my emails from tacomaworld have the same email.

    could be that the user was banned

    edit: pretty sure this is what happened. Someone or something realized this was a spammer/bot and banned them. Just that message alone screams scam

    Spam account was spammed earlier today.
    Any notification email you get (whether it’s a PM, reply alert, tag, any of them) come from webmaster.

    And if we spam an account, the PM gets automatically nuked.
